Swisher and Mossberg are moving on from Dow Jones, where they've built AllThingsD into a tech news powerhouse with scoops, analysis, and of course, their D Conferences.

Apparently at the Facebook party last night, AllThingsD reporters were telling everyone that they hired Li.

We like almost everyone involved in this transaction, so congrats to all.

Before we go, fun fact about Li: He wrote the original story that inspired the Fast and Furious series.
